Hi!

I'm trying to install MediaWiki 1.3.0-beta6 on Mandrake Linux 10.0. I get the
following warnings and errors:

What should I do about it?

Replying to myself, I'd like to note that I resolved the problem. All I had to
do was install the php-xml Mandrake package. Now, it seems to be working OK.

Mandrake! Now I know who to send my hate mail to about shipping insanely
broken PHP configurations. Thanks!

What do you mean by that? After I installed the php-xml package, it seems that
MediaWiki was installed perfectly fine, and it seems to be fully operational.
(from what I tried).

PHP's XML module is _enabled by default_. Removing it from the main
package makes for a pretty broken configuration, and Mandrake is asking
for trouble by doing it.

The next release will stop and tell the poor user more explicitly what
the problem is and to install that package if they're on Mandrake.

If you say so. /me is not a PHP expert.
